Chapter 211: The Treasure in Amber—A Sheep

A complete monster pill—not bad, it's far better than the previous one.

Rich in monster energy, a rare ingredient for pill refining.

And this corpse is also a fine thing; I wonder how it tastes.

Store the monster pill in a box to prevent its energy from leaking; the Wind Spirit Monster General's body before us is also something Chen Chuyang cares about—it's been badly damaged, but much flesh remains, and it must not be wasted.

The corpse is also put away; this series of motions comes naturally, practiced to perfection.

All traces on the ground have been completely cleaned up, leaving Jing Yuheng staring in bewilderment.

His pupils widened, he stared in shock at the scene before him; the Wind Spirit Monster General died just like that, in a single glance, a few moves, and was gone.

His heart shattered, the monster pill was ripped out, and he was utterly slain.

From Chen Chuyang's appearance to the end of the battle took only a few breaths; the Wind Spirit Monster General's harsh words weren't even finished before he was killed—this speed is too fast.

The person before him is a fierce one, a ruthless one, a… Strong One.

Hiss.

Pain and shock made Jing Yuheng emit a series of sharp intakes; he stared at the man before him, a mysterious man, a man he had never seen, who now turned around, the traces there having been cleared, and walked toward Jing Yuheng.

Jing Yuheng was somewhat anxious, but she knew she was now fish on someone's chopping board, at their mercy.

The wound is somewhat serious, but it's no problem.

We shouldn't linger here; let's go.

Chen Chuyang grabbed Jing Yuheng's neck and lifted her up, walking off like that.

Jing Yuheng wanted to struggle, but it was futile; that person wouldn't be courteous to her at all.

His actions were rough, simple and direct.

After they left, the formation was withdrawn.

The mountain peak remained the same peak, but the people inside had vanished.

The Wind Spirit Monster General was also gone.

The onlookers were all shocked, staring at the mountain peak, none daring to descend.

They feared ending up like the Wind Spirit Monster General.

Zhuge Ruolan watched this scene, feeling a lingering fear.

It was that person who struck; definitely him—the Wind Spirit Monster General couldn't withstand a few moves, he's become even more terrifying; we must not offend this man, retreat quickly.

Zhuge Ruolan didn't want to be noticed by that man; experiencing something like that once is enough to frighten her.

Moreover, she sensed that the person had noticed her, making Zhuge Ruolan even more fearful and anxious.

Feng Feifei ran alongside Zhuge Ruolan; she knew this woman certainly knew something, recalling how she herself had almost caused trouble by entering Longshe Shan, and Feng Feifei felt a lingering dread.

Back then, if she had entered Longshe Shan, wouldn't that have been…?

Gurgle.

Having returned to the cave, Feng Feifei stared at Zhuge Ruolan, her eyes full of coldness.

Did you back then want me to go to Longshe Shan to die?

You already knew there was a terrifying presence inside; you deliberately sent me to Longshe Shan.

Zhuge Ruolan forced herself to answer: 'No, I know nothing.'

Besides, it was you who wanted to go to Longshe Shan; I didn't make you go—don't slander me.

Feng Feifei glared deathly at Zhuge Ruolan; those eyes were terrifying.

After a long while, Feng Feifei saw no sign at all.

In her heart, she was absolutely certain that Zhuge Ruolan had done it on purpose, wanting to kill her.

Who is that person?

Feng Feifei no longer pursued that past matter; she only wanted to know who that person was.

She saw nothing, blocked by the formation; not even a ripple of battle reached her.

One can imagine the Wind Spirit Monster General was likely instant-killed; even facing it would give her a headache, and in a life-or-death fight, Feng Feifei couldn't guarantee she'd survive to the end—such a monster general, dead.

Zhuge Ruolan opened her mouth to speak, but found she couldn't utter a word.

Or rather, the seal within her body had been triggered.

If she spoke recklessly, it would… explode.

Silence.

Maintaining silence.

Zhuge Ruolan shook her head, saying nothing.

Feng Feifei understood her thoughts; the topic ended here.

At this moment, the two once again suspected each other, or rather, they had never really been together.

Shang Yingnian and Chen Yuan, who had rushed over, exchanged a glance, full of doubt.

Is it over already?

Shang Yingnian was somewhat at a loss; they had prepared for battle.

When they arrived, the battle had ended.

They saw nothing.

The Wind Spirit Monster General died, its aura gone.

Jing Yuheng also disappeared, leaving nothing behind.

It felt like a dream; everything they had seen and experienced was just a dream, not real.

But it wasn't a dream; they were quite clear about that.

Chen Yuan also didn't know how to explain it; the battle had ended.

They couldn't help at all; they came for nothing.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be over; the Wind Spirit Monster General is dead."

"……"

Shang Yingnian took a deep breath: "Should we go to Longshe Shan?"

Chen Yuan thought, then nodded: "Since we're here, we might as well go."

They harbored suspicions and wanted to go see what was happening.

They wanted to confirm their suspicions.

The two headed for Longshe Shan together, while the others vanished one by one.

This sight terrified them.

The Wind Spirit Monster General just vanished and died; they saw nothing, didn't see who attacked, and the Wind Spirit Monster General was slain by a mysterious force before their eyes, so they dared not show up or get near Longshe Shan.

On Longshe Shan.

Chen Chuyang cast aside Jing Yuheng; Jing Yuheng, covered in wounds, had lost much vitality and could barely breathe.

"Cough, cough, cough."

She spat blood again, gritted her teeth and sat up, took out a medicinal pill, stuffed it into her mouth, regulated her breathing for a few breaths, slightly replenishing some vitality and qi and blood; the wounds on her body didn't heal quickly, but she recovered a bit of true qi.

She opened her eyes, fixed her gaze on Chen Chuyang before her, took a deep breath: "Thank you, fellow Daoist, for your aid; Jing Yuheng will never forget."

She gritted her teeth, rose and bowed with clasped hands; Chen Chuyang did not dodge, extended his hand.

Jing Yuheng gave a bitter smile, felt out a piece of amber, amber the size of a head, transparent amber, showing a brownish-yellow hue; inside the amber, a creature was sealed, curled up.

Looking at it, it didn't seem like... a treasure's treasure, Jing Yuheng explained: "This is the treasure I obtained, also a sealed object; the creature inside is the treasure the Wind Spirit Monster General sought, and also his opportunity."

"Because of this sealed object, the Wind Spirit Monster General hunted me for half a month; I give this treasure to you, fellow Daoist, as repayment for saving my life."

Chen Chuyang held the amber, examining it carefully.

Spiritual Sense probed inward, but was blocked.

Unable to enter inside; touching the amber's surface would cause it to be absorbed.

"Huh?"

Spiritual Sense was absorbed and could not be retrieved.

Inputting a stream of true qi met the same fate—it was devoured.

The creature inside seemed to twitch.

Chen Chuyang grew more curious; this thing was rather interesting.

He unleashed a stream of Pill Fire; the flames burned, yet the amber absorbed them just the same.

The flames could not burn the amber.

"Huh?"

Chen Chuyang intensified the Pill Fire's burn; the amber continued to sparkle, while the creature inside seemed to grow somewhat.

Seeing this, Jing Yuheng hurried to stop Chen Chuyang's action: "Fellow Daoist, wait—this is a sealed object; we must not do this, for the creature inside is dangerous; if it escapes, trouble will ensue."
